Conflict Management Division’s PDWs Academy of Management 2008 Negotiating Your First Job. This is our 4th
annual PDW for doctoral students which is always well attended and
favorably evaluated. The workshop typically involves an overview of job
negotiations, participation in a job negotiation simulation, small group
discussions, and lively panel discussions in which our CMD negotiation
experts field questions from session attendees. Our panelists include
(to date) Steve Weiss, Greg Northcraft, Robin Pinkley, Don Moore, Jeff
Loewenstein, Dania Dialdin, Will Maddux, Paul Martorana, Chenbo Zhong,
Lisa Amaroso, and Ray Friedman. This remains a valuable session for
job-seeking PhD candidates and an excellent opportunity to attract new
members and foster relations with individuals from divisions other than
CMD. For information on 2008’s session, please contact Judith B.
White,
judith.b.white@dartmouth.edu. The Craft of Writing a Book: Wisdom from Top Scholars. At some point in their career, many management scholars consider writing a book, whether it be scholarly book, a popular press book, or a textbook. So how does one write a book and get it published? Academic training is focused almost exclusively on how to conduct a study and publish in academic journals. How does writing a book fit into one’s career? Academic and professional careers in management often do not directly reward such endeavors. Individuals struggle with these questions hoping to do better than just muddle through. The PDW will host a distinguished panel of successful book authors who will share their insight on this topic including Max Bazerman, Roy Lewicki, Fred Luthans, and other top scholars. OB and BPS Divisions are co-hosting this session. For further information, please contact Kurt Dirks, DIRKS@WUSTL.EDU CMD Doctoral Consortium.
Students will learn from leading scholars ways to build a successful
academic career. Our goal is to help students identify and pursue
research options that will contribute to the field and lead to tenure.
Doctoral students will listen to presentations by successful CM
scholars, then meet with them one-on-one and in small groups to discuss
strategies that will advance their research and academic achievement. We
are grateful for the expertise of
Bruce Barry, Don Conlon,
Don Ferrin, Michele Gelfand, Peter Kim, Deepak Malhotra, and
Randall Peterson who have confirmed their participation (among others
yet to confirm). Contact Deanna Geddes,
(geddes@temple.edu) if you have
any questions. Faculty members need to nominate their students (via
email to Deanna) by June 30, 2008. [Please note attendance
requirements: Any doctoral student may attend who is a member
of CM or is specializing in topics within the domain statement of CM.
They must not have attended a previous CM doctoral consortium. Students
do not need to have completed their dissertation proposal--only to have
chosen a specialization area.] |

As well, together with Charlotte Rayner (U of Portsmouth), he provided us with numerous Newletters to keep us informed and connected. A heartfelt thank you goes out to Michael and to his technical assistant, LaurieAnn Ray. At the same time, we welcome Ralph Hanke (Bowling Green State U) as our new Webmaster.
